PTI's lawyer Kazmi arrested for misconduct towards CJP Faez Isa

Islamabad: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) lawyer Tayyab Mustafain Kazmi arrested on Thursday for his unruly behavior with Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa.

The incident took place as the court reviewed petitions regarding Article 63-A, a constitutional clause pertaining to the disqualification of lawmakers.

Kazmi was taken into custody by Islamabad police from F-7/4 and subsequently transferred to the Secretariat Police Station. His disruptive conduct included making threats of opposition against the court's ruling, stating that “500 PTI lawyers were prepared to oppose any ruling against the party.”

Tensions escalated during the hearing when Kazmi openly challenged the bench’s legitimacy, criticizing the judiciary and demanding the removal of two judges, Justice Naeem Akhtar Afghan and Justice Mazhar Alam Mian Khel.
